Shelters every 7 miles or so. But there are private cabins all over those mountains. I found it over-inhabited and not at all wilderness-y. Except in Maine, you can see a town from almost every view. There are road crossings frequently (this shocked me, since I was used to hiking out west).Are there empty cabins in the woods along the AT?
I’m not sure but I think they may have been referring to the hyoid bone, which you would expect to be fractured in a strangulation.
What would BL need to survive in the various possible scenarios?
For example if someone is helping to hide him in an urban setting providing food/shelter/utilities etc, what does that look like?
Versus if BL were surviving on his own out on a trail somewhere, what would he need? Meaning, what kind of food items, gear etc. I doubt he's trudging along the AT with a bag full of canned salmon, sleeping on a tarp.
THIS!!!! Absolutely.I think he’s alive because his parents are too relaxed, they know he’s alive and well.
What parent would not leave their house if they knew their son was suicidal or risking his life.
That last part …. BL broke her neck.
This article refers to a theory posted on Reddit before the press conference. The coroner made no mention of a broken neck.I think it’s more. She had decomposed for weeks.
Gabby autopsy being ruled homicide so quickly hints at clues 'like broken neck'
DUH. I may have hiked on it and not known! Are the White MTNS part of the trail? MT Washington? Was my only REAL hiking experience in NH. Loved it. just a day hike but 8 hrs. jmoShelters every 7 miles or so. But there are private cabins all over those mountains. I found it over-inhabited and not at all wilderness-y.

Funny, I was just comparing photos of him from Utah and from the year before. He was much skinnier. Gawky. His eyes looked different, his face was more bird-like. The change is striking and very spooky. Maybe influenced by what I know of subsequent events, but he doesn't look right, and even though there's no reason to believe he was on drugs, he seemed coked up or methed up or something during the Moab stop.
The cervical spine can be damaged/broken as well as the larynx and esophageal damage which are soft tissues (possibly not available upon discovery Idk)I think it’s more. She had decomposed for weeks.

Oh yes, I recall the followup discussion of bologna vs boloney. So, on the 10th and 11th (if overnights) or 11th/12th (if day trips), they went somewhere and told the FBI. Sure!!! Why so secretive? Planning for the Great Escape. Sorry, Laundries, not buying it. Wonder if neighbors have any recollection if the camper was moved twice in less than a week.
Sometimes that is called mirroring.
It is often done consciously or unconsciously (and willingly) to be on the same page as someone else. Because you are attracted to them or interested in them.
imo
I personally think that Gabby was very good at having her say, doing what she (mostly) wanted to do, and was a strong young woman.
If she was limp and docile and compliant, there probably would have been very little reason/impetus to murder her.

From what I have read; It takes a massive amount of force to break a neck. Not sure if this link is allowed.I think it’s more. She had decomposed for weeks.

The jury didn't accept that explanation in the Chambers case, did it? Wasn't he convicted? Refresh my memory; that one was so long ago that I followed it in papers. (It seems hard to believe that I used to have to wait for the newspaper to arrive every day to get my news—such a different world!)Yes, this ^^ I've often thought that about Robert Chambers' trial. That flimsy story that Jennifer Levin hurt him and he somehow strangled her by grabbing her and throwing her off of him would never have been accepted by a jury if the prosecution said "this is how long it takes to strangle someone" and stood there in silence for five minutes.
To me it can be more of a reaction and not premeditated. A couple of examples are:
With that said, I think he was angered and reacted. I don't believe he thought a few second before.. "I'm going to strangle you..." and then did that... I believe his anger caused him to react, without thinking about his action, and he strangled her.
- I knock over a glass. I don't think.. I need to grab that before it hits the floor and breaks... my arm immediately flings out and tries to grab the glass before it hits the ground. Reaction, no thinking "I need to do that"
- Something flies out the air in my direction (thrown, falling, etc.). I don't take even a split second to think about it, I react and my arm flings up to reflect whatever the object is.
Sure, you can argue about how long it takes to kill someone by strangulation... but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about his initial response to whatever it is that triggered his action. And as for how long it takes... I'm in TOTAL agreement that he not only should have, be he COULD have stopped what he was doing without hanging on for up to 5 minutes. I'm not totally convinced that's premeditation either... maybe more caught up in the moment and unable to control his urges? I actually think "unable to control their urges" is the most plausible reason. If people could control their urges more, some people wouldn't do some of the horrific things they do.
Thank you for all that info. I had no idea and that was very detailed. Also interesting re: the bragging.To sleep under. I sleep under a tarp. However, you also have to have a ground cloth. And the tarp over you would have to be very lightweight. It has to be huge (much bigger than you’d think), since you can’t sleep near the edges (rain goes in sideways), and you have to have gables unless you want water to pool deeply over your head. No thanks. Imagine having to schlepp a huge blue tarp!
I’ve slept under my tarp in blizzards, illegally among crawdads on a bank of the Potomac, many strange places.
It’s spooky if you’re not used to it. You’re at eye level with bugs on the ground, chipmunks run right through it..
Then, there’s a certain amount of improvising when you set it up. You need trees, or trekking poles…
IMO BL read about this on some website or other. He told his ride from Colter Bay he had a tarp, because he was bragging.
